    Hey!
    I can play this game too!

    An item I've wanted for ages had arrived at home but my own personal Sauron has intercepted it, so it may have been cast into Mt Doom already :(

    I will post with joy if it is intact....
    Post with sorrow if it's scrap :(

    On a brighter note it'll be up on Adverts as "for repair" shortly afterwards!

    I love those little candy cabs, but they are really difficult to find now. I saw one on YJ but it went for silly money a few months ago.


    You mean these ?

    This guy lives not far from me , look how many he's got :mad:

    Scroll down further to see what he made with them .

    Terrible thing is he bought them all when they where still dead cheap , even has the Sega collection with Space Harrier included , has some awesome real life Candy's and an Aero table .
    It's not fair !

    It's based on the japanese steampunk design, what you have is a Jules Verne Voyage Watch, very Bioshock looking.

    Got my Game & Watch Ball from Club Nintendo today!
    Looks cool, plays great!
    Only problem now is, do I leave it out of the box, leave it in the box, how do I play it without wearing it out?
    Do I get a set of fancy gloves so I don't damage it?

    Also, the Turbo Everdrive works like a charm, brilliant!

    My sister made me the little Gameboy out of Fimo. It's absolutely impossible to focus on, but has a little power led, speaker holes, absolutely mad. She's mainly been making little Pokemon. They're excellent.

    Just about fits! :D

    So I decided to get this miniature cab as the replacement for my dodgy Robocop one that arrived the other day.
    Hopefully it turns out a lot better.

    It takes 6 of them but guess what my VB didn't come with the Battery Pack. Still it came with the much rarer and more useful AC adapter tap so no complaints.

    In that case does a SNES PSU not do the job?

    I tried it but it seems that the US Super Nintendo and Virtual Boy take a different power supply than the Japanese consoles, European consoles and US NES take. I'm pretty sure the adapter not fitting is the only difference. The adapter says only for use on US SNES and Virtual Boy. Ah well I kind of need a transformer for my Saturn anyway.

    So a US SNes won't take the PSU of a PAL Snes??

    Well the AC adapter no the PSU. It's strange because I have a PAL NES, US NES and PAL SNES and they all take the same adapters.
